Former NYC firefighter recalls 9-11

JUPITER, FL -- On this anniversary of the September 11th terrorist attacks, a former New York City firefighter is remebering the events of that horrific day first-hand. Chris McKnight was a captain, and a 23-year veteran of the department.Today, he calls Jupiter home and gives tours of the Jupiter Lighthouse.It's a much different life than the one he left behind after attending the funerals of dozens of fellow firefighters. McKnight did a lot of soul-searching before he decided to to retire from firefighting."Everybody started retiring and my children said `other firemen are retiring; dad, Why are you staying? You have 23 years in. Hurricane Ike increases in size, with winds up to 100 mph, heading towards the Texas coast. Ike is expected to become a major hurricane by Thursday. Sources tell NewsChannel 5 that the missing votes in PBC may have been thrown out by accident. Click story to read the exclusive details. 2008 The E.W.

Development Release: Mandriva Linux 2009 Beta 2

Mandriva is proud to announce the release of Mandriva Linux 2009 Beta 2 'okapi'. This beta includes a completely new installer for the Free (and, in the final release, Powerpack) edition, and is testing the Fedora system-config-printer printer configuration tool as an alternative to printerdrake. The new beta also brings Firefox 3, OpenOffice.org 3.0 beta, and support for the Ethernet adapter used in many new Eee PC (and other netbook) models. As always, Mandriva reminds you not to use pre-releases in any critical situation; install them only on a test system or partition, or in a virtual machine. Additionally, we strongly discourage using this pre-release to upgrade from any earlier release of Mandriva Linux." Read the release announcement and release notes for more details.
